Editing Blood Slaughterer (section)

====6th & 7th Editions====
Really, they only got better. 6th Edition Chaos Daemons, long since the butt of jokes from 4th and 5th, were a playable army and the Blood Slaughterers power was jacked up sufficiently to compensate. Everything from the previous edition carried over save for the requirement to charge whatever was closest and now they had to pass a 2+ to ignore crew shaken and stunned results. Then, they got two new special rules tacked onto their profile: '''Daemon of Khorne''' granted them furious charge (which did nothing) and a 5++, buffing their survivability; and then they got '''Deep Strike''', and not just for Chaos Daemon armies, either. Next to Obliterators, they were the go-to deep-strikers in 40K being roughly the same size as a dreadnought and frighteningly more powerful. They were also one of the few things in the game now that could effectively wind up in close combat on their turn after deep-striking due to a hilarious quirk in the rules; the strategy was effectively to strike near a MC or vehicles, impale it and drag it towards you, rip it to fucking pieces and then sweeping advance into the next victim. Dynamite!

7th edition didn't really do much to them; they got added into some formations and detachments, which were already broken but 7th edition was just borked all over.
